Case Presentation

For this case study, you'll be given a mini case study. A partner at Grant Thornton needs to meet with a potential new client, Westings Gym, tomorrow to discuss potential support for their business. Some initial research on Westings Gym and its competitors has been done, and a brief initial conversation with the client has also occurred. Your task is to review the provided information and write an email to help the partner prepare for the upcoming meeting. The partner specifically requested insights on key priorities, how Grant Thornton can help with growth, challenges the gym faces and how to address them, ensuring information accuracy for conclusions, and any further information needed for the meeting.

Behavioral Technical

I applied online with my resume and some basic questions, then did some online tests that were pretty standard. After that, there was an online interview with 5 questions. Most of them were behavioural, asking about my personality and past experiences, but one was about recent financial news.

Technical Behavioral Group

I applied online and then had to do some psychometric testing. After that, I got a link for a video interview. I passed that, and then they sent me a link to a virtual assessment centre on Zoom. The last step was a final interview with a panel where they asked me the usual stuff like 'tell me about yourself', 'why accounting', and for a 'teamwork example'. It was a pretty average process overall.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you tell me about yourself?
  • What motivated you to pursue accounting?
  • Could you share an instance where you worked effectively in a team?
